The quintessential holiday nut, fresh from the mountains of Italy. Plump, sweet, & creamy as always, our premium Fresh Chestnuts are back for the holidays—just in time to be roasted or boiled for your favorite traditions! Packed with key nutrients like fiber, vitamin B, phosphorus, & folic acid, they're every bit as nutritious as they are festive. More glee, less guilt! ~20-25 nuts per pound.
How to store: Keep refrigerated or freeze! Due to their high moisture content, raw chestnuts require refrigeration to prevent spoiling. Perforate the bag for ventilation, add a damp paper towel, and store 'em in the coldest part of your refrigerator (ideally at ~33°F) to keep 'em fresh for up to two weeks. You can also freeze 'em with or without their shell for up to three months (ideally at ~-4°F). When you're ready to use, thaw overnight in the fridge and use promptly.
How to prepare: For roasting: Preheat oven to 400°F. Place chestnuts on a baking sheet, cut an ""X"" into the flat part of each nut to allow steam to escape, and sprinkle with water. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until skin begins to peel. Wrap roasted chestnuts in a towel and apply pressure to crack their shells. Let them steam in the towel for 5 minutes, then unwrap and remove shells and skin. Feel free to season with your favorite spices—like rosemary, nutmeg, pepper, garlic, fennel, or thyme.
For boiling: Use a sharp knife to make a small incision in the outer shell on the rounded side of each nut. Fill a pot with water (enough to fully cover nuts once added) and bring to a boil. Add chestnuts. Boil for 15-20 minutes or until the incision opens, revealing fuzzy inside. Remove one nut and peel to check if flesh is fully cooked (should be soft). Place nuts into a bowl, cover, and let cool for 10 minutes. Once cool, remove shells and skin.
